In the Honor of God- the Beneficent- ever Merciful…

Neque confundentes personas: neque substantiam separantes.

Virtulis Gloria Merces

I’m a jackass of all trades & mistress of Philosophy and Literature, singer, dancer, plus size model, lover of God, painter, photographer, sculptor, player of instruments, maker of instruments, film maker, dreamer, documentarian, media designer, antiquarian, writer of incendiary texts, writer of academic texts, non-conformist, amateur linguist, activist, dreamer, actress, eccentric, animal lover, upstart, rebellious revolutionary, tranny with a uterus, rootless cosmopolitan, melancholic historian, wannabe wife and mother, agent provocateur, and a reclusive and shy groupie of obscure artists.

"In our time nobody is content to stop with faith but wants to go further. It would perhaps be rash to ask where these people are going, but it is surely a sign of breeding and culture for me to assume that everybody has faith, for otherwise it would be queer for them to be . . . going further."- Johannes De Silentio

"How much boundlessly stupid naivety is there in the scholar's belief in his superiority, in the good conscience of his tolerance, in the simple, unsuspecting certainty with which his instincts treat the religious man as inferior and a lower type which he has himself evolved above and beyond." FN

"Gramercy, Lord, for alle tho synnys that thu hast kept me fro whech I have not do, and gramercy, Lord, for al the sorwe that thu hast govyn me for tho that I have do, for thes gracys and for alle other gracys whech arn nedful to me and to alle the creaturys in erth. And for alle tho that feithyn and trustyn er schul feithyn and trustyn in my prayerys into the worldys ende, sweche grace as thei desiryn, gostly er bodily, to the profite of her sowlys, I pray the, Lord, grawnt hem for the multitude of thi mercy. Amen." from the Book of Margery Kempe

Who I'd like to meet:

..

The Humankindness Cow to give me some of her milk. Jesus. The lunatics who took over the asylum. Old Friends and classmates. Friends of Friends. Kind hearted people with wicked senses of humor. People with sharp tounges, sharp minds, and fertile imaginations. Ornithologists and Bird Lovers. Filmmakers, Musicians, Commedians, Puppeteers, Actors, Artists and Activists. Dancers. Sufis, Orthodox and Coptic Mystics, Muslims, Mumin, Jinn, People of the Book, Jews not Zionists, Christians, Sabians, Patripassianists, Marxists, Communists, Anarchists, Socialists, Black Panthers and Maoists and Punk Rawkers. Planetary bodies and dead philosophers. Living philosophers and Muppets. People who neither conform nor rebell. No Flirts! No Fornicators! No Marriage Proposals! No Games! (except for Fortunatus!)

    Lucius here!  Hope you're enjoying like in the UK.  Just a heads-up that my old Myspace page is now the official profile of the "Handbook for the Modern Mystic," a 5-book series due to be released between now and 2012.  I've been posting lots of text samples in my Blog, and hope that some of it resonates with your own experiences and insights.  Much more material will be featured on the upcoming web site, www.modernmystic.com.  Also, I will be in CT for the holidays if you want to meet up.

    Peace!

    I am curious as to how you are. Things are well here. Dylan is 11 1/2 and after seven years of teaching I am back in school for my second masters in counseling. Still single. Such is life. I wouldn't change a thing.  How are you?
